I think it would be beneficial for them to just search all comments for the word woke and don't let those reviews be factored in to the overall score.

6.3 for ME3

That ending really stung a lot of people

I didnt like it either but its wasn't franchise or even game destroying

Not to sound like a dick, but I actually think the low user scores are more reflective of the actual quality of bioware games. if I was gonna rate me3 a 6 would probably be about it. It's me2 again but with a dumb story, less effort and more bugs (and andromeda was just that squared from what i understand). Also they tried to use a multiplayer mode that they shut down as a form of drm or something by gatekeeping the "best" ending behind playing it.

And dragon age inquisition wouldn't even get a 6. It's a single player mmo except it also does the standard bullshit bioware thing where everything scales to your level so progression is pointless.

Sure the "0/10 cus woke/sjw/feminism" scores are influencing things, and I wish people were rating the game poorly because the games actually do have problems, but bioware games also got a lot of undeserved perfect scores

If someone’s dropping a review after 7+ hours, even if it's unhinged, you can at least say they engaged with the game beyond the title screen or Character Creation

Jokes on you, I always open a new game then end up alt-tabbing and going and doing something else which steam still recognises as "hours played"!

Steam is abused as well but differently. For example, for Dustborn, the bigots who didn't own the game first added unrelated tags like Political Sim or Psychological Horror to the store page, which were there for a while. Once those were removed, they switched to marking the most unhelpful reviews as helpful and vice versa, which meant that although the balance of reviews was Very Positive, the only things you'd see upon scrolling down are the negative reviews.
